President Bush raised eyebrows on Tuesday
 
Harry,
Do you feel better now?

You and your Hanson Brothers with your cut and paste articles remind me of
someone with Tourette's jerking and jumping. The jerking and jumping
doesn't really solve anything. It might be a minor irritation to those
around them, but it does makes the person with Tourette's feel better.

Do you feel better now?

BUSH ASKS ABOUT 'SPLASH DAY'

President Bush raised eyebrows on Tuesday when he asked locals in
Galveston, Texas: "Do you still have Splash Day?"

"Splash Day" is the annual "adult oriented enormous beach party"
celebration on the Gulf Coast.

BUSH: Do you still have Splash Day?

(LAUGHTER)

BUSH: You have to be a baby boomer to know what I'm talking about.

(LAUGHTER)

BUSH: I'm not saying whether I came or not on Splash Day. I'm just saying,
Do you have Splash Day?

(LAUGHTER)

Bush was unaware "Splash Day" is now a fully gay and lesbian event on the
beaches.

Maybe he did know...after all, this latest gaffe took place a day after he
was seen holding hands with Prince Abdullah of Saudi bin Laden.

Is it any wonder harry has so much to cut and paste......with the MSM doing
everything they can to prop up their losing side

This morning's ABC News/Washington Post poll is getting a lot of press, with
its apparently bad news for Republicans. The Post itself headlines its story
"Filibuster Rule Change Opposed," and begins its coverage of the poll with
that issue:

As the Senate moves toward a major confrontation over judicial
appointments, a strong majority of Americans oppose changing the rules to
make it easier for Republican leaders to win confirmation of President
Bush's court nominees, according to the latest Washington Post-ABC News
poll.
[b]y a 2 to 1 ratio, the public rejected easing Senate rules in a way that
would make it harder for Democratic senators to prevent final action on
Bush's nominees.


Sounds bad. But here is the question the pollsters asked: "Would you support
or oppose changing Senate rules to make it easier for the Republicans to
confirm Bush's judicial nominees?" That is an absurd question, to which I
would probably answer "No," too. The way the question is framed, it makes it
sound like a one-way street, as though the Republicans wanted to change the
rules to benefit only Republican nominees. If they asked a question like,
"Do you think that if a majority of Senators support confirmation of a
particular nominee, that nominee should be confirmed?" the percentages would
probably reverse.

Of course, the poll contains bad news for Republicans across a broad range
of issues, including Social Security. Which raises, as always, the question
of the poll's internals. Sure enough: they over-sampled Democrats. If you
look at page 16 of the poll data, which can be downloaded from the Post's
article, it discloses that 35% of the poll's respondents were Democrats,
while only 28% were Republicans. Given that slightly more self-identified
Republicans than Democrats voted in last November's election, this
represents an egregious, seven-point over-sampling of Democrats. No wonder
the poll data are bad for Republicans.

There might be a career for Bush in the entertainment field after he's
turfed from the White house. He could be a new Rodney Dangerfield.

The vast majority of the liberal voting block will not bother to look at the
poll itself. I would guess that's also true of the liberals in this group. If
any of them had looked at the actual data, I'm sure they'd be screaming about
how biased the questions and the sample population were.

Would you be so kind as to stop responding to the off-topic bull****? My
newsgroup filter only works well when we all play by the rules. It's either
that, or become one of the vaunted few on my PLONK list. Your choice.

I don't know to whom you're responding, but if it's the 'cut'n'paste' crowd,
they really don't give a rat's ass if you filter them. They'll just keep
changing their name to get noticed.

Good luck.
